The good news is that this episode serves as a cinematic parable about the nature of good and evil in humans. The bad news is that it's a bit edgier than usual for this show, particularly when the evil Kirk attempts to rape a woman (not graphic, of course). Hopefully, the further episodes keep things clean.

Content Concerns:
Sex: A man attempts to rape a woman; she successfully fights him off. 2/5
Nudity: Shirtless guy. 4/5
Language: One misuse of God's name. 4/5
Violence: Two or three fisticuffs; a woman fights off an attempted rapist; a guy is bloodied after a nasty fall; two men are seen with scratches on their faces; people are shot at with phasers. 2/5
Drugs: Alcohol is consumed and referenced two or three times. 4/5
Frightening/Intense Scenes: The evil version of Kirk is rather creepy; this episode is rife with emotional intensity. 2/5

Score: 3.5/5
